Big Blue Shoe has a great post up: Preview Week Seven: Colts at Jaguars. My favorite bit is about one of my favorite Colts, Bob Sanders:
While RB Maurice Jones-Drew is an impressive player (I thought that before the December rushing rape last season), he has yet to meet Mr. Sanders. The same holds true for Fred Taylor. Fred, typically, kills the Colts. However, in the two games Bob Sanders played against the Jags, Fred Taylor did jack bubcus. Per usual, Big Bob is a big key tonight. If he and the Colts contain Jacksonville’s vaunted rushing attack, it will force a normally efficient David Garrard to throw more than he likes to. This means Freeney. This means Mathis. This means Garrard running for his life.
I take it this means Sanders is expected to play tonight? Awesome! It is a bit worrisome though that the fate of the Colts sometimes seems to rest (at least on the defensive side) on the shoulders of one player who gets injured so often…
The Colts are clearly better than last year but it is not just because of Sanders.
OT Tony Ugoh is more than holding his own as a pass blocker, but is a much better run blocker than Tarik Glenn. DT Ed Johnson has been the best undrafted free agent on defense in the NFL.
What about the Tampa Bay game when the 7 players were out? The Colts have plenty of young talent capable of stepping up. Lots of young fresh talent that can come on and off the field will keep the other team on their heels.
